You noticed that AC crapped out too? At one time they
were among the best filters. Heavy metal casing, hugh
filter area. K-mart used to have rebates for them
where you could get them for $1.25 ea. I didn't
realize who started making them, I just knew they
changed. The standard Fram filters suck in our apps.
I don't think they have the anti-drainback feature and
the lifter know it on startup.
